    Verse Specific Powers and Abilities Rules

    So this has happened too much for us not to make rules/limits around it. But VSP need better rules than just the UES stuff. I'll give examples for what I'm talking about and then what should be added as rules to better manage this. Got perms from KingTempest. Characters should have...

Hope I haven't limited place for loopholes way too much. Here are the rules: If I didn't established any form of limitations or low/high ends -...

    Folks... It's time to give the Authority of the Three Moons back to Dragon King Nibelung. The reason why am i making this thread is because i wouldn't publish Columbina's profile anytime soon. Probably 2-3 months later. Instead of just waiting and doing nothing, i might just give Nibelung the...

    Invulnerability: Complete Rewrite and Name Change

    In this previous thread a long discussion was had about the current Invulnerability page, and how it leads to a lot of bad applications of the power. I have finalized a proposal for a complete rewrite of the page, which you can view here. There's some notable changes from what I last proposed...

    [Overlord] Very Simple: Ainz Ooal Gown's PnA remaster

    Small Tweaks to Invulnerability

This is my proposal. The idea behind it is pretty simple, I've seen a lot of people misusing or even abusing...

    Adding types systems to more abilities

While controlling B, A still has his mind in his own body (we even saw both bodies react to stuff at...

    Is this a type of resistance? If so, then what kind?

    Basically, this character gets hit point blank with a flashbang/flash grenade, but he is completely fine/unscathed as we see seconds later. A flashbang overwhelms your senses, and gives a very intense, brief flash of light and a very loud bang to temporarily blind, deafen, and disorient people...

    Minor Magic Adjustment

    @Phoenks brought to my attention that the current definition we use for magic is "The ability to allow manipulating aspects of reality (or all of them), bypassing the known laws of physics."
